A snippet of something I did in AUM last night/this morning.
I’d love comments on the mix.
I can weather the brutality.

If it was my mix, I’d thin out some of the sounds at the higher end and I’d bring the bassline up in the mix a bit, maybe add a sub to it at least an octave lower.

It’s all pretty subjective though, if you like how it sounds then it sounds good.

[shankiphonic]

thanks - right now, I’m just not that confident in my ears.
I will say, tho - I do it all by ear - not quite at the stage where I’m working with numeric frequencies as a guide…

I’m pretty sure that this is one of the less horrible things I’ve laid down, from a mix perspective.
I like the idea of the sub layer for the bass. I’m going to add that. it’s not thick enough.
thanks for that suggestion.
I will also try filtering the other two parts. you think both the keys and the lead should be “thinned out”?
thanks again.

[Fin25]

I don’t know about the keys and the lead, maybe just turn the hats down a touch, or a bit of eq or filter on them or something.

Like I said though, it’s all pretty subjective. Trust your ears

I haven’t listened because I’m out and I wouldn’t want to judge it on an iPhone. Buuut, this bit stuck out to me. Carry on using your ears, compare with other tracks at the same volume, but don’t go down the route of looking at frequencies in a DAW EQ plugin. All that visual mixing is bullshit and it’ll make things much harder or sound shit/unnatural (at least in my experience). I’m so glad I just mix things by ear nowadays, even though I still use a DAW. Close your eyes and really listen instead. As long as your monitoring is fine and you’re used to how other things sound on your cans or monitors, you’ll be absolutely golden.

As @Fin25 says, if it sounds good, it is good
